[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a little surprised they don’t give better merit. They have a fairly substantial endowment. [/quote] +1 Yes this is a big strike on them. By comparison, Grinnell is a similarly rated LAC (#19 vs. #22), also has a substantial endowment, is more selective (13% acceptance rate vs. 23%), yet gives great merit awards, including automatic $20K/year merit awards for those accepted Early Decision. [/quote] Agree that UR seems like a really bad deal, unless you are getting aid. Grinnell, Denison, Kenyon and Macalester are all far better schools and you are likely to get $80-120k in merit. At Richmond you won’t get anything close to that and Richmond isn’t in the same league academically as the others. [/quote]
